Definitely one of the better batting tees available today. Rugged and durable, well worth the money. Should last my 6 yr old for many years to come. Suggest that if you set it up in the basement to put tape on the floor to show your child where to put their feet and setup appropriately to the ball. Did this for both my 6 yr old and 3 yr old. After only a couple minutes for 2-3 times a week I've seen a dramatic improvement with their swings. Looking forward to ball season to see the improvement on the field.

Item is great for evening out the perfect swing for softball or baseball players! Repetition is key... Item came in quickly. Very sturdy, just wish they had 1 more tension available as my oldest daughter is hitting on the strongest one already. Little pricey too

I purchased the Sklz hurricane for our 7-8 year old little league team to practice batting. The machine is very sturdy, easy to assemble and comes with a transport bag. We are very satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend. Only draw back is it is on the heavy side. That being said I believe it is a small sacrifice for how sturdy and well built this machine is.

This is a great practice tool for little league on up... The person who complained that this did not work right, did not read the directions-- you have to grease the shaft in order for it to operate smoothly-- this is revealed in the instructions. My teams have used this for three seasons and it works really well. You can't beat the current price!

This is a great tool for developing skills with the younger players. My Son goes out daily to take swings. It allows me to stand near him and give instruction and help make corrections after each swing. So far it's holding up extremely well for 3 weeks and a few thousand swings.

Well, it matched exactly the description in the sales literature, as wwell as what the testimonials commented on. It arrived quickly, it was easy to set up, and the item worked as described. Only concern would be the four "rubber" straps. They can't last forever, and testimonials said replacements aren't available from the company. That's too bad! If for some reason they break early, I will revise my opinion on the product; but for now after only four days, it is a good trainer. My grandson seems to love it, and he is a great hitter on Little League.

This is worth the price. The rubber footing keeps it in place even on cement floors. One kid can use this all day and not have to chase balls, reload machines or wait for a good pitch. You can move around and you can adjust high and low to work on pitches in different locations. You can tell how well you hit by how far it goes around or if it bounces up and down. Highly recommend for any level

LOVE THIS THING. MY SON IS 7 YEARS OLD AND I CAN SEE THIS GROWING WITH HIM. BOUGHT IT AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT, BUT THE GROWN UPS HAVE BEEN HAVING JUST AS MUCH (OR MORE) FUN. THE BALL DOES WIGGLE QUITE A BIT, IN AN UNNATURAL JKMIK"PITCH" MOTION, SO YOU HAVE TO LET IT GO AROUND A FEW TIMES BEFORE YOU HIT IT AGAIN. OTHERWISE, GREAT PURCHASE

The only thing wrong would be the bag is a bit flimsy, due to the pipes having sharp edges I can see the bag ripping in a short amount of time. I plan on lining the inside of the bag with a towel to avoid the rips. Everything else is sturdy construction and have use it with a team of 10 years as a warmup prior to a game. Frees me up to deal with other kids on the team instead of holding a batting stick the entire time.

This trainer was brought by a kid's dad the day of a major tourney our boy's team played in. The team put up 21 runs on the competition for that first game and then went on to run the bracket and win the tourney. I give much of the credit to the swing timing the kids developed from the short time on this trainer.
